SAFETY

  • The stand is an accessory for an angle grinder and is to be used to convert the grinder to a cut off saw. Observe all grinder manufacturers safety instructions.
  • The stand must be secured to a firm level surface.
  • Ensure the work area is clear of debris obstructions and well lit.
  • Ensure you have a stable footing (wear safety shoes) before starting to cut.
  • Ensure that no flammable materials are in the area before starting work.
  • Sparks from the grinder will damage paint, glass and other surfaces.
  • DO NOT wear nylon or polyester clothing whilst cutting, wear overalls which have suitable resistance to fire.
  • DO NOT wear loose clothing, hair jewellery etc. whilst using the grinder.
  • Keep children and bystanders at a safe distance when using the tool.
  • DO NOT use the grinder without the guard being in place. The plastic guard fitted to the stand is for the control of sparks only and is not designed to prevent parts of the cutting wheel causing injury. Use a grinder fitted with the original manufacturer’s metal guard.
  • During assembly ensure that the metal/plastic guards are positioned between the cutting wheel and the operator, so that if the cutting wheel breaks the debris will not hit the operator.
  • Inspect the cutting wheel for damage including chips, cracks etc before each and every use.
  • DO NOT use a damaged wheel.
  • Check that all nuts, bolts and screws are tight before use, tighten as required.
  • Keep the power cord for the grinder away from the cutting wheel.
  • Use the support only with grinders with disc diameter 100mm, 115mm or 125mm.
  • Use only cutting wheels with the grinder in this stand. DO NOT use wheels designed for grinding.
  • Ensure the wheel is square to the base of the support.
  • Ensure the material to be cut is securely held in the work clamp.
  • DO NOT try to cut materials which are too large to be safely held by the work clamp.
  • Allow the cutting wheel to come to a complete stop before attempting to remove material from the clamp.
  • Always unplug the grinder before attaching it to the stand, during any maintenance, when the stand is not in use or before dismantling.
